As a follow-up to this, using:
ifconfig xnX -rxcsum -txcsum
Does actually fix the problem. I finally got a block of time to go through
all this stuff again the other day [it's amazing what difference actually
having a decent chunk of uninterrupted time makes!]
You do need to be careful when setting this - as at one point, it seemed to
cause some kind of issue that may have flooded the network (if it did -
this would be the second time we've seen a XenServer DomU flood things by
jabbering the same packet over, and over).
